Suggest Treatment For Pus-filled Bumps On The Legs
I have small white filled puss bumps trying to spread on my legs.it started when i started working at this landscaping job.my mom says i have sensitive skin but it appears soon i pop them,they appear later and maybe a couple more.i need to know a cure.
It could be a boil or tiny abscess arising from hair follicles. Consult a general practitioner and get evaluated. Pus has to be drained and topical antibiotics like mupirocin can be applied after cleaning with soap and water. A short course of antibiotics preferably Amoxclav can be taken for five to seven days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
